Male? Too early to tell?

Ceratogyrus darlingi. .5”

These are the first baboons I’ve ever owned, so I have little experience with their spermatheca or sexing them properly. The organs seem spaced farther apart so does that mean male? Or would it be too early to tell at this stage?

How large is the spider in question?

Nice pics. How did you get so close to a sling? Awful young even with a microscope. I can't tell.

The spider is about .5” as mentioned in the post
I had a few people look at it on a couple of spermatheca groups and they all said looks very male, which I can see as well. I’ll definitely check the next molt to be sure, but it’s likely a male.

Thank you! The microscope was set to about x10 magnification for this .5” molt
The structure leans heavily male already for this species as a few people have told me, but I’ll recheck next molt as well.

A 0.5" spider may be too small to see any development yet, depending on species. I usually see clear, difinitive results over 3/4"-1" in DLS
